It alludes to GEOMETRY The first and noblest of sciences, the basis on which the superstructure of Freemasonry is erected. By geometry we may curiously trace Nature through her various windings to her most concealed recesses. By it we discover the power, wisdom and goodness of the Grand Artificer of the Universe and view with delight the proportions which connect this vast machine.
By it we may discover how the planets move in their different orbits and demonstrate their various revolutions. By it we account for the return of the seasons and the variety of scenes which each season displays to the discerning eye. Numberless words are around us, all framed by the same divine Artist, which roll through the vast expanse and are all conducted by the same unerring law of Nature.
A Survey of Nature and the observation of her beautiful proportions first determined man to imitate the divine plan and study symmetry and order. This gave rise to societies and birth to every useful art. The architect began to design, and the plans which he laid down, being improved by experience and time, have produced works which are the admiration of every age.
The lapse of time, the ruthless hand of ignorance, and the devastations of war have laid waste and destroyed many valuable monuments of antiquity on which the utmost exertions of human genius have been employed. Even the Temple of Solomon, so spacious and magnificent, and constructed by so many celebrated artists, escaped not the unsparing ravages of barbarous force.
Freemasonry, notwithstanding, has still survived. The attentive ear receives the sound from the instructive tongue, and the mysteries of Freemasonry are safely lodged in the repository of faithful breasts. Tools and instruments of architecture, and symbolic emblems, most expressive, are selected by the fraternity to imprint on the mind wise and serious truths; and thus through a succession of ages are transmitted, unimpaired, the most excellent tenants of our institution.
The sacred name of Deity, before whom we should all, from the youngest Entered Apprentice to the Worshipful Master who presides in the East, with reverence most humbly bow.
